Golub Honors Debbie Frank’s Legacy with Fundraiser Event

The real estate community recently came together at “Debbie’s Buck-It Bash” in a heartfelt tribute to the late Debbie Frank. The event serves as the flagship fundraising initiative for the Debbie Frank Legacy Fund.

Frank worked in Golub’s commercial leasing division for 14 years. Her legacy is characterized by her commitment to empowering women throughout the industry. The fund has provided over $150,000 to support women pursuing graduate degrees in real estate. The fund also donates to mentorship and community engagement organizations. Among the beneficiaries are the scholarship programs offered by CREW Chicago and The Goldie Initiative.

“We will always feel Debbie’s inspiration and energy in our lives and, for the second year in a row, we have honored her memory by following her lead, supporting women as they explore their own potential within the real estate sector,” said Paula Harris, managing principal at Golub.
